Taipei, May 8 (CNA) A recent survey found that popular TV host Tao Ching-ying's successful marriage and career has made her the most envied mom by working mothers, an online job bank said Monday.

Some 59.9 percent of the respondents said they were most envious of Tao, also known as Tao Tzu, a mother of two, for her parenting skills, successful marriage and the low frequency of negative news about her, Yes123 said, citing the results of the poll.

Some 23.2 percent voted for another TV host, Dee Hsu, better known as "Little S," because that as a mother of three, she could make a living with what she enjoys doing, it said.

The rest of the voters chose socialite Amy Sun, wife of a local tycoon, for maintaining a fine physique after giving birth to two children.
